was designed to he a shrine of art MS well as
a secluded home; it was consumed by fire
many years ago, and in it many valuable
paintings were destroyed. But while all
these have their beauty, and the town itself is
well worth a visit, the tourist cares more for
the old church, the old mill, and especially
the monument to the captors of Andre
Imagination cannot restore the scene as it
was ON that 23d Of September, 1850; for the
thicket east of the road, where the captors
were engaged in friendly game of cards,
has long since changed to an open park, the
hollow is filled, the stream at which Andres
horse was drinking when he was discovered
now flows through hidden culvert, and the
marshv hollow west of the road is part of n
private mclosure But the exact spot where
the search tool, place is still in brtshy timber,
nearly us it then was. and there stands the
plain monument with this inscription on the
south side of the base:
ON this spot
The 23d day Of SEPTEMBER l7S), the Spy,
Mai john Andre,
Admtaut General of the British Army
Was captured 10y
John Paudng David Williams and Isaac Van
Nart
All natives of this county.
History has told the rest
The people of Wcstchcstcr county have erected
this monument as well to commemorate a great
event as to testify their high estimation of that
integrity and patriotism which, rejecting every
temptation, rescued the United States from inn
ninent peril by battling the arts Of spy and the
plots of traitor.
Dedicated October :, 1853
On the east face fronting the pike is n finely
sculptured relief, representing the search OF
Andre at the moment when the CaptOr dis
covers the papers in his sock. Despite its
thirty odd years of exposure, every face in
the relief is a clear portrait On the north
side is short sentence from WashngtOns
letter of thanks to the CaptorS The oft told
story need not he repeated. The capture was
one of the few events in war about which
there has never been dispute, and every de
tail of which is known; for the trial of Smith,
Andres guide took place hut four days after
and every incident was infinitely detailed on
that trial 10y the captorS. Time seems only to
add to the importance of the event, and Tar
rytown justly ranks high as one of our places
of patriotic pilgrimage, j. H. BEADLE.
